What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The UK government announced the “Your First Home” scheme, a state-backed equity loan program designed to help first-time buyers purchase new-build homes in England. Under the proposed program, eligible buyers could purchase a property with a 2.5% deposit and receive a government-backed equity loan covering 20% of the purchase price. The scheme is slated to be formally confirmed in next month’s Budget.
